Default change valve springs?

85,000 miles and time for a top end and cams.
Cams are Woods 777
Heads are later model 103 zero mile take offs with the stock beehive springs
Road King

Are the new stock beehive style springs fine with this cam, or should they be changed to suit the cam.
If so then stock, SE, or something else

The new stock springs will be fine with those cams and their 575 lift.....
